Kyle Newton asked:
In September of 1993 a television show premiered on Fox that became a cultural phenomenon all around the world. The show focused on FBI agents Fox Mulder and Dana Skully as they investigated paranormal activity, often centered around extraterrestrial origins. The show was called The X-Files.
The show became popular among UFO enthusiasts, science fiction fans, and mystery fans due to its interesting mixture of science fiction, mystery, and conspiracy theories as topics of investigation for the protagonists.
The show was created by Chris Carter. The show is considered a hallmark series of the 1990s due to its appeal to those who mistrusted the government, had an interest in spirituality, and extraterrestrial possibilities.
The series pilot featured Dana Skully (played by Gillian Anderson) who is brought on by the FBI to work in the X-Files department, which is looked down on by her peers on the basis that it is centered around the paranormal and that it is run by Fox Mulder (David Duchovny) who has earned himself the nickname Spooky due to his belief in the paranormal, particularly in the belief that his sister was abducted by aliens. Skully’s job is more than that of working with Mulder, however. She has been brought on to work with him in order to debunk his findings due to her skeptical nature.
However, as the series progressed, she constantly found her skepticism and logic challenged by the unexplainable. As the series progressed, romantic tension built between Mulder and Skully and this led to the speculation of many fans that a romantic relationship between the two would take place. However, this did not happen until the very end of the series.
The series proved so popular, that a motion picture was released in 1998 entitled The X-Files: Fight the Future and was a major financial and critical success. After the end of the series in 2003, fans pondered whether or not a sequel would ever be filmed, with optimism at first, but as the years rolled by, that optimism waned.
Even the actors seemed to not have faith in the production of a new film. However, in late 2007 it was announced that a script for an untitled sequel had been written with both Duchovny and Anderson to reprise their roles to show what happened to the protagonists after the cliffhanger ending of the series. Filming began in December and it is expected to be released in July of 2008.

Haunted Lighthouses – The St. Augustine Lighthouse
Denise Villani asked:
The St. Augustine Lighthouse sits on the north end of Anastasia Island in St. Augustine, Florida. The current tower, which was built in 1874, rises to 165 feet above sea level. The original lighthouse, built in 1824, was approximately 500 yards northeast of the current lighthouse. Due to the receding shoreline, it fell into the ocean back in 1880.
Throughout its early history, the lighthouse employed up to three lightkeepers at a time. There was a head keeper and two assistants. In 1955, when the lighthouse was automated, there was no longer a need for lightkeepers and the last one left at that time. The lightkeepers, who would actually live on site, were replaced by lamplighters, who would tend the light but didn’t actually live there.
According to the lighthouse’s official website, there have been seven people who have died on the lighthouse grounds: three lightkeepers, a keeper’s wife and three young girls. Several of these are said to have died of natural causes. One man fell to his death from the original lighthouse in 1859, and the three girls died in a tragic drowning accident.
The lighthouse and its surrounding buildings have a long history of paranormal activity and stories of the hautings have been passed on and have been featured in popular television shows, books, and local lore for decades. Visitors and workers say they have seen moving shadows and heard voices along with unexplained sounds. Some tour guides claim they hear someone climbing the tower steps, but the footfalls fade away, and no one is ever there at the top of the tower. There is also said to be a little girl who likes to play pranks residing in the keeper’s house, a tall man in the basement, and a spirit who likes to play with the merchandise in the gift shop. One former keeper was infamous for enjoying his cigars. Today, the scent of his cigar can still be detected several times a week.
Several employees have reportedly seen a hazy male figure walking through the lighthouse. Footsteps from an unseen presence can be heard shuffling on the gravel and the steps outside the lighthouse. Other reports are of a woman seen on the lighthouse stairway or walking in the yard outside the buildings.
Perhaps the most famous tragic story is that of three young girls who died during the construction of the second lighthouse. The story says that there was a rail car or some type of vehicle that went from the light station to the ocean. The children liked to play on it and ride on it for fun. On July 10, 1873, the cart somehow ended up in the water. Five children fell into the water and some of the Workers managed to save a boy and a girl. Two of the constuction superintendent’s daughters, Mary and Eliza, and a young black girl, either a servant or the daughter of a worker, drowned.
It’s said that today, the girls can be heard laughing in the tower late at night. The eldest of the construction superintendent’s daughters, Mary, has also been spotted wearing the same blue velvet dress and blue hair bow she was wearing when she died. Reports also say that the the figures of two little girls can sometimes be seen standing on the lighthouse catwalk.
For years there have been reports of a large dark, male spirit that hangs around the water collecting cisterns in the basement. Supposedly he was a sailor or a former lightkeeper who hung himself in the lighthouse in the 1930′s. According to the lighthouse’s website, there isn’t any proof or evidence that anyone ever hung him/herself there.
History says that the original owner of the lighthouse was forced to sell it to the government in 1865 because it was believed that the land under the lighthouse was receding and the ocean would eventually swallow it. The state offered to buy the lighthouse for alot less than it was worth and he refused to sell. The government then threatened to take the lighthouse via eminent domain and give him nothing. At this point, the former owner was outraged and vowed never to leave the lighthouse. Lighthouse staff say he seems to have kept his vow as his spirit is sometimes seen late at night walking in and around the property.
One of my favorite episodes of Ghost Hunters was filmed at the St. Augustine Lighthouse. The Atlantic Paranormal Society (TAPS) stopped by to see if they could prove or disprove any of the hauntings. During the episode, they caught a few interesting things on both video and audio. There was a female voice that seemed to say “help me” a few times on the audio recording. The video camera captured a dark figure moving really quickly up the circular staircase and then stopping to look over the railing down at the camera crew from the top floor. The figure then disappeared. When Jason and Grant went to investigate, they realized the door at the top which would be the only exit was padlocked from the inside. There was also a motion detection light that never came on until the TAPS guys got up there. Overall, with the evidence they captured, the guys determined that they really couldn’t prove the place wasn’t haunted.
The St. Augustine Lighthouse is currently owned and maintained by the St. Augustine Lighthouse & Museum, Inc. The lighthouse is operational and is is an official, privately-owned, active aid to navigation. The museum is open to the public and the admission price funds preservation of the lighthouse and programs in maritime archaeology and education. The lighthouse offers night tours of the site, though they don’t promise any ghosts.

Ghost Hunting – Televised Events

Hazel Ford asked:
What I think we need to understand is that televised ghost hunts are edited to the point where they give the impression that there is continuous activity. This is very understandable when you consider that they only have an hour to demonstrate 2 days worth of ghost hunting time. This is obviously edited and therefore the paranormal activity seems relentless. As a ghost hunter myself I can sometimes feel very envious of how televised events present themselves to the eager observers. I wish that on an untelevised event we could get that much activity. However, this is not the case. On many ghost hunt events it could be a long arduous night with very much happening at all and when it does there is no repetition or replay of the moment. We have to be alert and eagle eyed throughout the event. The best thing about having a lot of people there is that there are more people to hear and see activity. The downside is obviously that there are also a lot of people who can make noise which can be misinterpreted.
All ghost hunts are fascinating. Every location is unique as is every ghost hunt event. The people attending the event all bring something different in terms of energy and belief about what they are doing. I wonder how interesting it would be for a public ghost hunt to be televised and how controls could be enforced in order to make it entertaining. It would of course be quite an active event as the timeframe would be filled with the movement of the public and re-settling into various locations. However, I could see how this could work. It would be a bit like the public who watch the televised versions of a ghost hunt physically going into the Television to be part of the televised event. No longer being an observer but a participator.
Have you ever considered going on a ghost hunt event? If so then please visit our website at http://www.hauntedhappenings.co.uk and we will ensure that you will have an experience that you will never forget,

How does a true professional ‘Exorcist’ react to skeptics and debunkers ?

Anthony Cox asked:
Q. What do you as a professional Exorcist think about Skeptics and Debunkers?
A. Firstly, I’d like to make it clear that in my line of work, I also need to be a Skeptic, or should I say, be objective in my approach. There are many people passing themselves off as experts, and there are also many who make fraudulent claims for ‘fun’. I take my work extremely seriously and have no time or desire to go off on tangents or be led down paths wasting time. And in the case of people who honestly make mistakes about what they’ve experienced or whose problems are not Spirit caused, I have no interest in telling them that their problems are something that they are not. My interest is in the truth, and giving people the help that they need, be it through Spiritual means or otherwise.
Now, myself aside, there IS a real need for Debunkers to exist because as I said, not only are there many people passing themselves off as ‘Exorcists’ and experts in the field, but there is an incredible amount of ‘garbage’ out there being passed off as ‘Psychic Healing’, ‘Paranormal activity’, ‘ Religious healing’ etc. It is always a good day when some of this ‘stuff’ get’s properly ‘debunked’ , and disappears .
Unfortunately though, there is an even greater amount of garbage passing itself off as ‘debunking’. The largest problem is that most active Skeptics are extremely narrow minded amateurs who are usually driven by their own negative experience that they wish to purge via a crusade to ‘prove’ that these things don’t exist, therefore no matter how much evidence they are provided with, their own fuzzy logic invariably refuses to accept it as such. For what it’s worth, the same can be said for many Medical professionals. These people are more embarrassing than those they are trying to debunk.
Many calling themselves ‘Scientists’ have the catch-cry “There is no proof” and approach the subject with a completely biased and closed mind . Well, there is plenty of proof , provided by Science, as well as the general public and people in the field that is equal or greater in quality than that in many other fields. A real Scientist would say “show me what you have” ,and view it with an open perspective.
For what it’s worth, I have had a fair share of ‘Skeptics’ and ‘Scientists’ amongst my clients over the years and in each and every case their viewpoint changed as they were faced with the reality of what they were experiencing and enlisted my help.
Another important consideration as to whether the Paranormal exists or not, is the fact that not only do many Police Departments around the World enlist the help of skilled Psychics to help with investigations, but the extremely well documented Paranormal research and Psychically based espionage programs sponsored by the US Department of Defense, The former USSR, China, The UK, and so on , to the tune of hundreds of millions of dollars.
The bottom line is that peoples own inner fears will ultimately guide their feelings on this subject. If someone chooses to not believe in these things that is their free choice, but if they wish to fancy themselves as a ‘Debunker’, they should do so in a sensible and professional manner with an analytical and open perspective and be willing to accept evidence when it is presented to them.
I myself am here not to judge, but to help those who know what they may be facing and have nowhere to turn.
Peace.

The Basics of Paranormal Investigation
Denise Villani asked:
The word paranormal comes from the words “para” meaning beyond, and normal. So the term paranormal really means something that is beyond the normal scope of science or being beyond a scientific explanation. According to the Journal of Parapsychology, the term paranormal describes “any phenomenon that in one or more respects exceeds the limits of what is deemed physically possible according to current scientific assumptions.”
Ghosts generate strong electro-magnetic fields. These fields cause disruptions in the magnetic field of a location which makes it detectable by both specialized equipment and psychics. Ghost hunters use many different types of equipment to detect an paranormal phenomena. A 35mm or digital camera is probably the easiest and least expensive way to begin. Pictures, whether digital or recorded on film have the ability to capture paranormal activity that is usually invisible to the ***** eye. In addition to a camera, it’s important to have a flashlight since most paranormal investigations will be in dark places like cemeteries, basements, attics, or old buildings. Also, most investigations occur between 9pm and 6am when it’s dark. This is believed to be the best time to record paranormal activity. Along with the flashlight you’ll need extra batteries, since batteries will sometimes mysteriously lost all their charge during paranormal investigations, literally leaving you in the dark.
Once you have these basic items, you’re ready to start exploring the world of paranormal investigation. Some important things to remember are: never go on an investigation alone, and be respectful of the of the people, places and situations you encounter.
The first step in an investigation is selecting the place you’re going to investigate. Once you choose a location, be sure to get permission to access the property to ensure you won’t get into any trouble for trespassing. It’s also very important to do some research on the location before you go out and physically investigate it. You can go to the library and look up old newspapers, visit the local historical society to find out about the history of the place and if anything strange has happened there, and of course talk with the owner of the property.
Once you get all your data collected you have to analyze it. Every picture, video, audio recording is reviewed to look for any sign of a haunting. When doing your analysis, be sure to be skeptical. Make sure you rule out any explainable causes for anything odd that may show up. Check for mirrors, shadows, light sources or anything else that may cause something weird to be seen or heard in your collected data. Most of the time, the things you initially detected during your investigation will have real world explanations as opposed to supernatural ones. It’s important to make sure your evidence will stand up to any scrutiny by eliminating any other explanations. This will give your data more credibility.
Once you complete your analysis, you need to present your findings property owner. At this point you would recommend whether the owner needs to seek additional help, such a having the property blessed or if there is really nothing that needs to be or even can be done. Sometimes just having someone investigate the place and find nothing can help ease the mind of the person experiencing the haunting.

3 Reasons to Visit Chatham-Kent Ontario
May 5, 2009 by admin
Filed under Uncategorized
T. Payne asked:
Chatham is settled on the Thames river in Southwestern Ontario. It is predominantly rural and agricultural but it is still home to over 108 000 residents. Farming surrounds the city but there is industry found in the larger urban areas.
Chatham was founded as a naval dockyard back in the 18th century. It was named after a city in England which was also a dockyard. In 1998 the county of Kent was amalgamated with Chatham giving us the municipality of Chatham-Kent.
The area has a rich and interesting history, here are a few specific reasons to visit it:
1. Paranormal Activity: Are you into ghost stories and mysteries? If you are, Chatham is a great spot for you. People come from across Canada to try and get a glimpse of the paranormal in this city. Downtown Chatham is rife with ghost stories and other unexplainable phenomena.
The city actually plays host to an annual Spook Walk, where paranormal author Sheila Gibbs leads a tour through the downtown core sharing the ghost stories of local businesses and residents. Every town has it’s share of weird stories, but Chatham had enough that Gibbs was able to write a book about it: The Ghosts of Chatham-Kent.
2. Erieau: This small community located in south-central Chatham is a popular tourist destination. Located on the shores of Lake Erie, cottagers, boaters and fishermen flock to this area in the summer to enjoy their leisurely pursuits.
Erieau has a full service boat marina to cater to all your boating needs. It is also home to some of Ontario’s nicest sandy white beaches. There are an abundance of cabins and cottages to rent in this area all summer long.
3. ROCKSTOCK: A relatively new attraction to the city is this rock festival. 2008 saw the inaugural event draw some big names in Canadian rock music. Finger 11, Sloan and The Trews headlined the event that took place at the Chatham Municipal Airport.
The first year was such a success that event organizers are planning for an even bigger show this year. They are planning on making the festival a 2 day event with one day devoted to rock and one day devoted to country. Hopefully this change will help ROCKSTOCK continue to grow and impress.
Chatham is a wonderful place to spend some time. It is also full of history, if the above reasons weren’t enough to interest you I will throw in an extra tidbit. Chatham was actually one of the stops on the legendary Underground Railroad. Some residents say that explains why their is so much paranormal activity.
Come to Chatham to have a great time, relax on the beach or learn about the history of this great Country. One thing is for certain, no matter why you come, you will be happy you did.

1. Paranormal Activity: Are you into ghost stories and mysteries? If you are, Chatham is a great spot for you. People come from across Canada to try and get a glimpse of the paranormal in this city. Downtown Chatham is rife with ghost stories and other unexplainable phenomena.
The city actually plays host to an annual Spook Walk, where paranormal author Sheila Gibbs leads a tour through the downtown core sharing the ghost stories of local businesses and residents. Every town has it’s share of weird stories, but Chatham had enough that Gibbs was able to write a book about it: The Ghosts of Chatham-Kent.
2. Erieau: This small community located in south-central Chatham is a popular tourist destination. Located on the shores of Lake Erie, cottagers, boaters and fishermen flock to this area in the summer to enjoy their leisurely pursuits.
Erieau has a full service boat marina to cater to all your boating needs. It is also home to some of Ontario’s nicest sandy white beaches. There are an abundance of cabins and cottages to rent in this area all summer long.
3. ROCKSTOCK: A relatively new attraction to the city is this rock festival. 2008 saw the inaugural event draw some big names in Canadian rock music. Finger 11, Sloan and The Trews headlined the event that took place at the Chatham Municipal Airport.
The first year was such a success that event organizers are planning for an even bigger show this year. They are planning on making the festival a 2 day event with one day devoted to rock and one day devoted to country. Hopefully this change will help ROCKSTOCK continue to grow and impress.
Chatham is a wonderful place to spend some time. It is also full of history, if the above reasons weren’t enough to interest you I will throw in an extra tidbit. Chatham was actually one of the stops on the legendary Underground Railroad. Some residents say that explains why their is so much paranormal activity.
Come to Chatham to have a great time, relax on the beach or learn about the history of this great Country. One thing is for certain, no matter why you come, you will be happy you did.
